Those portraits are at the start of my portraits album here, if anyone still wanted to look. http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/cp I sent a note to Charlie off list but maybe someone else might be interested. Yes the images are retouched which is a normal part of my developing, especially for beauty and fashion images. Specifically the skin texture shown has been softened a little after spotting. For Dr Ted, I always value your comment, especially in our off list lively conversations ;-) I agree that the photographers technique is vital of course. All of that being equal I will then add that the best cameras and lenses can add more quality. Of course I am talking about for my applications. This has nothing to do with photojournalists or street photography. The files from this S2 and these lenses are just ridiculously good and side by side with my M and its best lenses there is still a big difference (for large prints for example). My friend Philippe, the headbands are actually fashionable for hiphop gangsta fashion costumes! The print on their outfits is called 'weed' for the marijuana! Here is the Hi! they sent Dr Ted! http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/158771337 These dancers have all sorts of amazing outfits that they perform in. http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/158771327 http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156651303 Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman
